My scrambled channels were pretty awesome for a while. It would be real staticy but if you adjusted I think the tint all the way down and brightness down a bunch with something else and it was as clear as a normal channel with maybe a bad connection. Sound was even good.

Then once I got my own computer it was on like donkey kong. Well Donkey Kong bangs fat white bitches volume 15.

You guys are funny. I used to do the exact same thing. They scramble everything better now though.. I had no sound and way shitty picture. When I learned of the HBO shows though it was game over for the scrambled shit. It must have sucked having scrambled as your only option.

We used to have one of those giant satellite dishes that moved around to tune in different "galaxies" I think it was G17 that had all the good stuff. From the time I was 11 years old I learned how to "fine tune" the satellite dish so those channels would come in and I could watch the naughty.

I was watching late at night once when my Pops came into the living room. The remote only worked if it was pointed directly at the receiver and I couldn't get it to change the channel fast enough. So I asked my Dad if he could change the channel for me and he allllllmost did before he realized what I was watching. Busted.
